Kathleen will be missed at PwC -- we didn't work together daily but I frequently enjoyed some quick banter with her and deeply appreciated Kathleen's sharp wit, which was sometimes disguised as sarcastic commentary. I was sorry not to make the services, but my prayers are with you all -- she was a special lady.

Your sorrow and loss are in the thoughts and prayers of the Sisters of Saint Joseph. Tragedies in families as difficult as they may be, through prayer bring us a glimmer of hope in the hereafter, where we will once again be all together.
